Answer:

The stroke indicates Paralysis

Explanation:

The reason behind a stroke includes- blockage in supply of blood into the brain or blasting of a brain blood vessel. It may result to Paralysis of either parts of the body or any one side of it.

A right-side paralysis of body and inability to speak can be a symptom of Paresis or right-side paralysis. Paresis occurs due to damage in the left-hemisphere or lefty-portion of brain, as the left brain controls the ride side of our body. So, I will tell about the left brain damage of her grandmother.

The stroke would have happened on the left side of her body. The left cerebrum controls speaking, so it would make sense that her speech was slow and/or slurred. The right side of the body is controlled by the left brain, so the right side would become paralyzed. The right side of the cerebrum has to do with emotions, so being able to understand what people say is a sign of a stroke on the left side of the brain.

sdas [7]

Meredith holds full responsibility for what happened to her patient. Falsifying documentation is illegal and extremely dangerous to the patients' health, as was the case with her patient, Mr. Wallace.

Meredith should have never put vitals down that were not taken at the time of the visit. What should have happened is that Meredith should have stopped attempting to take Mr. Wallace's vitals and asked a senior co-worker or the Physician to help assist with taking a blood pressure. She also could have used an alternate way of obtaining a blood pressure (example: using the radial pulse with the blood pressure cuff at the forearm). The patient should absolutely be reimbursed for the medical bills accrued from Meredith's mistake/lapse of judgment. Meredith also just receive a performance write-up with her employer. She is lucky if she would still have a job.
